Films, films, films

What a day. Three films and a full shift yesterday. Interviews, work, maybe a film, and potentially a jam session today! Opened the day yesterday watching KICK IN IRAN about an woman kick boxer from Iran preparing for the Olympics. What a window into the culture. Saw WINTER'S BONE after work, a riveting tale, and then closed the night... with SON OF BABYLON, a narrative about a boy and his grandmother traveling through Iraq 3 weeks after the fall of Sadaam in search of the boy's father. Shot on location in Iraq in 2008/2009. Another window into a land not often seen on tv.

Fantastic Mountain music in the film WINTER'S BONE. Someone asked the singer, Meredith Sisco, during the Q & A if she would be playing anywhere during Sundance. I told them I had my mandolin if they wanted to borrow it. Trying to set up a place for them to have an informal session.....as there are other musicians that traveled from Missouri to be here for the film.
